CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: PARCEL MAP #85 -321, WARLAND INVESTMENTS, LTD., SOUTHWEST CORNER OF KATELLA AVENUE AND KNOTT STREET: Mayor Lacayo reopened the public hearing. The Planning Director presented a report dated May 6 recommending approval of Parcel Map #85 -321. Mrs. Eynon reported that Condition #9 provides that if the developer requests an option to the standard berm design, he may do so provided he deposits a cash payment to be applied towards the maintenance and upgrading of the bike trail. She stated the applicant is present and wished to discuss an alternative to Condition #9. 96 City Council Minutes May 12, 1986 Mr. Carl Robertson, representing the applicant, 1299 Ocean Avenue, Suite 300, Santa Monica, reported that he had reviewed with staff the cost difference between the full and half berm and had determined that the half berm would cost $175,000 more than the full berm. Under these circumstances he felt the cash payment for the bike trail was unjustified, and he pointed out that there is no benefit to Warland to go with the half berm. Mr. Robertson urged the Council to do something positive and constructive for the City as a whole and he described an alternate proposal by Warland to underwrite a public relations project to promote the Cypress Business Park. He proposed that a committee of City staff and applicant representatives be established and direct the work of a public relations consultant. The consultant, Jeri Turpin & Company, would prepare a first class promotional brochure for the Business Park and perform other duties as directed. He stated that Warland would pay the consultant fees and cost of the brochure up to $15,000.00. Mr. Robertson reported on potential users of the property. He stated that during the past nine months they have marketed it for use by two large retailers; one would be a wholesale grocery store and the other a competitor of the Price Club. The site would also contain about 12 in -line shops and a restaurant similar to Reubens. Mr. Robertson stated they are in negotiations with users for the 100,000 and 50,000 square foot spaces and have restaurant proposals under consideration. He stated their number one interest is seeking retail business. Councilman Partin indicated that the south end of Cypress has no City facilities and that he was interested in gaining something for that area. He stated the bike trail sets it apart and is used a lot by the residents. He indicated he would like to upgrade the deteriorated condition of the trail. Councilman Partin indicated he fully supported the half berm design and appreciated Warland's offer of the brochure but that he was disappointed with their decision on the bike trail. Mr. Robertson stated it was an unfair burden for Warland to pick up the tab on the bike trail which is not on their property and he felt the responsibility should be shared throughout the Business Park in an equitable fashion. Mayor Lacayo asked if anyone else wished to speak in support or in opposition to Parcel Map #85 -321. There were no other speakers. Councilman Partin requested that staff show the video tape of the Stanton channel bike trail. Mr. Barrett showed the tape which highlighted problems of hreaks in the chainlink fence, sections of fence missing, asphalt broken down on the bike path, graffiti on the channel walls and trash and debris in the channel. The Council discussed the condition requiring improvement to the bike trail by the applicant and expressed a consensus that the applicant should not be solely responsible and that other funding sources to improve the trail should be found. It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Kanel to close the hearing and adopt the Resolution by title only, title as follows, approving Parcel Map #85 -321 subject to the conditions recommended by staff, with the deletion of Condition #9: RESOLUTION NO. 3084 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS APPROVING PARCEL MAP NO. 85 -321 - WITH CONDITIONS.

Mr. Essex stated her report would be requested for the next Council meeting.

In regard to added Item #27 concerning the tank farm, Mayor Lacayo stated he had requested the City Manager to arrange a meeting with the operator of the tank farm and the real estate company which is trying to sell the property. Councilman Kanel stated the odor was actually diesel fuel which had been moved through the lines from the Long Reach area to the Cypress tanks. He reported that he spoke with Mr. Roethel, the local Fire Chief, and Mr. Reynolds of the AQMD to get additional information on the tank farm. According to Mr. Reynolds, the fuel was moved through the lines too quickly causing a build -up in the tanks and the pressure valves gave and released the huild -up. Mr. Reynolds provided an extensive background of the tank farm and indicated that quarterly inspections are made and he is familiar with the contents of each tank. Councilman Kanel reported that the local Fire Department has no knowledge of the contents and would be unable to shut off valves. He stated Texaco does not maintain all-night personnel on the property. He reported that he spoke with a retired Fire Captain from Long Reach who indicated that Long Reach is informed about their tanks and has a cooperative effort with oil refineries, tank farms, etc. which includes meeting with them twice a year and conducting exercises. Councilman Kanel recommended that staff be directed to investigate the items of concern, seek more cooperation from the oil company, and determine how the Fire Department can become better involved to respond to any emergency that might arise at the tank farm. In response to Councilman Mullen, Mr. Essex reported that the City's Toxic Waste Ordinance does apply to the tank farm and it will be implemented by the County Fire Department. Battalion Chief Jerry Logan reported that, under the Hazardous Materials Disclosure Act, the Fire Department will receive more frequent reports on the tank farm production. He stated they have a record of calls about tank farm odors dating from July 1985 but many times they cannot verify that the tank farm is responsible since other possible sources must be checked. He stated their records indicate that no product has leaked on the ground. Chief Logan stated that an April 17 report from the AOMD indicated that they had identified the problem, it was corrected, and odors should not emanate any longer. Chief Logan stated the Fire Department forwards their concerns to AMID for follow -up action. He offered to investigate and report back to the Council on the Fire Department becoming more knowledgable about the tank farm in order to respond to possible emergencies, whether any deficiencies exist there, and on the vapor recovery system. 98 City Council Minutes May 12, 1986 Mr. Herman Roethel stated that in addition to the odors he was concerned about the potential fire hazard. He stated the Fire Department would not know what to do and the homes are only 20 -30 feet away. Mayor Lacayo introduced Mr. Terry Kerr, area manager for the Southern California Edison Company. Mr. Kerr offered to investigate the tank farm problems and report to the Council. It was moved by Councilman Kanel, seconded by Councilman Mullen and unanimously carried to request Councilmembers Coronado and Lacayo to serve on a committee and meet with the City Manager and tank farm representatives regarding the Council's concerns. In regard to added item #28, Councilman Kane] distributed a report and reviewed a timetable on the processing of the Pomeroy motel application, comparing it to the other motel application which was approved by the Council. Councilman Kanel asked if there was a way for the Council to consider the application again, without waiting for the 45 day moratorium to expire, to enable the applicant to move his property and not be caught in a hardship situation. Mayor Lacayo urged the Council to address the issue of the current moratorium and whether they want to lift it and not discuss the timing or merits of the specific application. He suggested that if the Council wishes to lift the moratorium they hold a public hearing to get input on whether the residents want a moratorium or more motels built. Councilman Mullen indicated that he had not anticipated the extensions to the moratorium and had expected completion of staff's study in 45 days. He stated he did not expect a hardship to fall on one development and indicated he was willing to consider lifting the moratorium. Councilman Partin inquired about the status of the study and the Planning Director reported that it had not moved ahead since the last meeting. Mr. Essex estimated that the Council should receive the report by mid - September. Councilman Partin stated he would like to have information on whether the City needs more motels and for that reason he supported the moratorium. Councilman Coronado stated he would like to make a non - emotional and intelligent decision regarding the long -term effects of building motels on Lincoln. He said he must consider what is best for the City and that he wanted to wait for the study and for the moratorium to end. The City Attorney advised that repealing the moratorium could he accomplished either by adopting a regular ordinance or an urgency ordinance. A regular ordinance with a first and second reading and enactment 30 days later would extend past the current moratorium period. An urgency ordinance would require recitals explaining why the moratorium is an immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare. He stated that adopting the urgency ordinance could affect the Council's future ability to establish a similar moratorium if they wished to do so. Councilman Mullen stated he could not support an urgency ordinance to repeal the moratorium.
